The finer details:

VENUE: Darjon Vineyard

Based on the successful business model of Rosemount Park Estate, Meris and Phil offer you this romantic North Canterbury vineyard immersed in an intimate garden setting surrounded by 8 acres of vines, that is only a short drive from Christchurch.

Darjon also supplies set up, ceremony chairs, signing table, shepherd crooks with jars along the aisle (if you wish), and a ceremony arch. Darjon is beautiful at any time of the year.

PHOTOGRAPHER: Kirsten Smart Photography (or another available photographer)

You have two options to choose from:

60 minutes of photos (this option comes with the package)
90 minutes of photos (choose this option from $250 more)

The time for each photography option starts at the ceremony.

You will receive a gallery of images four weeks after your wedding, with a ‘sneak peek’ of five images within two business days.

CELEBRANT: Kineta Booker

Kineta loves micro weddings! There’s something so special about inviting your closest friends and family to celebrate your love with you. We do the legal bit first, with a beautiful personalised ceremony, where you can share your own vows (which Kineta can help with) – then you can get into the celebration straight afterwards! (The price of the celebrant doesn’t include your marriage licence fee of $150 or marriage certificate, $33)

*PRICE: $3699+GST (for any vendor that is not exempt)
